Fall is in the air … with a hint and hope of a little more sun and leftover locals’ summer weather after the recent rain.

And with locals’ summer fever still pitched at the onset of fall, sometimes a student, or anyone else, just feels the urge to close the book on a hectic life and bug out, so to speak. That’s lounging language — sorta.

What better way to practice springing into that sunny, cool lounging mode than by resting on the back of a VW Bug and hoping what’s on the printed page sinks in through osmosis. That was one way of studying during a “free” at RFH … Ahem.

So, the Retro Pic of the Day honors that sort of moment in time from RFH in 1975 on a Monday that may have perked you up with that peering sun and this chillin’ look back.

Know these slackers? Who had the VW bug bug?

Happy Monday!
